On account of numerous miniature stone networks observed in the examined region down to 1500 metres, the question is raised, whether the „border-line of climatic patterned ground" — which is supposed to run in an altitude of 1800 or 2000 metres in the zone around the Central Alpes — should not include another zone (of the „initial forms") below the above mentioned line. And the question arises: isn't this the real lower border-line?
